 The West Haven boys tennis team had one mission this week. That mission was to defend its Southern Connecticut Conference title. 
Mission accomplished. 
Sweeping in doubles play and winning three of four singles matches, top-seeded West Haven defeated second-seeded Hamden 6-1 at Yale University Thursday afternoon to repeat as SCC Division II champions.

"The SCC championship win today is a testament to all the hard work and dedication our players have put in over the past twelve months," West Haven coach Jason Kirck said. "We have great athletes and great competitors on our team. Our senior class leadership led by our captains John Delgado, Jeremy Borelli and Luis Alvarez have provided a constant example of hard work and sportsmanship. Winning our second straight SCC Division II championship is a great feeling and will provide our players inspiration to continue to work on their games in the off season."
In doubles play, top-seeded Luis Alvarez and Jeremy Borelli topped Rick Basak and Justyn Wongiwat 6-2, 6-3. 
"Winning this (championship) is the greatest feeling in the world, especially when the whole team is like family," Alvarez said. "When we started as freshmen, it was tough for everyone. We all started out inexperienced. Every year we started to get better and we worked harder and harder. It is the greatest feeling. These four years we have turned a negative record into a positive record. We worked hard and we worked even harder to win it a second year. After that first year, it was an inspiration for us to win it a second year.in a row especially knowing this was the last year the Delgado brothers were going to be together."
Second-seeded Marwan Lkhal and Jake Smith posted a 4-6, 6-1, 6-0 decision over Raif Harris and Daniel Millea, while third-seeded Charlie Sihaphong and Albert Dimaisip won 7-5, 6-1 over Vinh Ungh and Jimmy Darcy. 
"Asssitant coach Nadir Amato has been a tremendous influence on our program," Kirck said. "His expertise and desire to instruct our players has been a huge reason for our team's success. Our tennis program is full of student athletes who represent the best of what West Haven High School has to offer. They exhibit competitive greatness both on and off the court. Our program is excited for the future to see how we can reach new heights as we move up to Division I next season."
In singles play, top-seeded John Delgado fell 6-2, 6-2 against Brandon Howard. "This is a big deal for us," John Delgado said. "This team was overlooked years ago. Now, we have won our second in a row. People admire us. It is a big deal. This team has grown from zero to new heights. Coach (Kirck) is a really good coach. He gets us prepared to play. He gives us a speech in the circle together before we play and any fears go away. He has gotten us together as a team. We have each other's backs."
Second-seeded James Delgado won 2-6, 6-3, 10-3 , third-seeded Joseph Delgado won 6-2, 6-3 over Avi Mahajan and fourth-seeded Oreo Olowe won 6-2, 6-3 over Akshar Agarwal. 
"Winning this means a lot to us especially coming off winning last year," Borelli said. "This is a great team at the highest point in the team's history. It means a lot to me and the other guys. We came in four years ago and the program was not thought of as very good. Coach Kirck and Coach Nadir (Amato) started to make us better. We worked really hard and we all put in the effort day in and day out. The program kept getting better and hopefully will continue to do well in Division I next year. We will look back in 20 to 30 years and say we made history together as a team and were part of a team that won two SCC  championships."
